11. Can you imagine life without fuel?
NO!

12. BIO FUEL
we get bio fuel from bio mass

13. BIO MASS
• Biomass is the name given to all the Earth’s living
matter .
• Biomass is organic material that has stored
sunlight in the form of chemical energy
• Biomass provides a clean, renewable energy
• First, it is a renewable resource that could be
sustainably developed in the future.
• Second, it appears to have formidably positive
environmental properties,

14. BIO MASS

 Advantages and Disadvantages of Biofuel

18. • Biofuel is the fuel which is produced from biomass
organic products and wastes.
• The common commercially used biofuels are
bioethanol, biodiesel and biomethane.
 Bioethanol is made from sugar, algae, wheat and sugar
beet.(50% that of gasoline)
 Biodiesel is made from vegetable oil, algal lipids,
animal fats(about 90% that of petroleum diesel)
 Biomethane can be produced from waste organic
material, sewage, agriculture waste and domestic
wastes

25. Bioethanol
 One of the widely used alternative
automotive fuel in the world
 Bioethanol is produced by the
fermentation of carbohydrate rich
source which includes sugar cane,
sugar beet, corn ,etc
 Cellulosic biomass, derived from non-food
sources such as trees and grasses, is also being
developed as a feedstock for ethanol production
 It is colorless and clear liquid

26. Bioethanol
Milling ( sugarcane stem &
separation of juice and bagasse)
Fermentation (conversion of sugar
into alcohol, production of ethanol)
Distillation (separation of ethanol)
Dehydration
(azeotropic mixture)

27. Application
• transport fuel to replace gasoline
• fuel for power generation by
thermal combustion

28. Ad-Disadvantages of Bioethanol

The European Union - 950 billion liters
India - 300 billion liters

31. BIO- OIL
• Bio-oils are liquid or gaseous fuels made from
biomass materials, Via biochemical or
thermochemical processes.
• Bio-oil has a higher energy density than biomass
• It can be obtained by quick heating of dried
biomass in a fluidized bed followed by cooling.
• it is more economical to convert bio mass into
bio-oil and then the transport the bio-oil

32. • Bio-oil can be used in vehicle engines – either
totally or partially in a blend.
BIO- OIL application

33. • Bio –oil can be used instead of bio mass in
remote area of bio mass this will make
transportation easier
BIO- OIL application
Reduce Handling Costs
Reduce Shipping Costs
Reduce Drying & Densifications Costs

Palm seeds
Coconut seeds
Rapeseeds
Jatropha seeds
Sunflower seeds
Corn
Soybean seeds
Pond Algae

37. Biodiesel
• Biodiesel, an alternative diesel fuel, is made from
renew able biological sources such as vegetable oils
and animal fats
• Similar to petroleum diesel fuel in structure
• reduces carbon dioxide exhaust emissions
• Biodiesel produces 100% less SOx than petroleum.
• Biodiesel reduces exhaust smoke (particulates)
• The Biodiesel can be prepared by Transesterification.

40. After Glycerin removal, biodiesel now just needs to be
cleaned/purified before use:

41. Biodiesel-Blended Fuels
• Can be used alone / blended
• B20: 20% biodiesel
• B99: 99% biodiesel
• B100: pure biodiesel

43. •Biodiesel is much easier to handle and does not cause
cracking or redness.
•Biodiesel is much less dangerous to put in vehicle fuel
tank as its flash point is ± 150°C (300°F) as opposed to
petroleum diesel ± 70°C (150°F).
• Biodiesel provides significant lubricity improvement
over petroleum diesel fuel so engines last longer, with
the right additives engine performance can also be
enhanced

• concerns about waste management in the
agriculture and food industry
• cheap

52. Application of Biogas
• Cooking
• Lighting
• Fuel for engine

54. Biohydrogen
• Hydrogen is not a primary fuel.
• It must be manufactured from water using energy from either fossil
or non-fossil sources.
• The use of hydrogen fuel has the potential to improve the global
climate and air quality.
• using a fuel cell, hydrogen can be utilized with high energy
efficiency
• We can produce hydrogen from biomass

56. Advantages of Biofuels
• Renewable
• Sustinability
• Easy to Source
• Fuel security
• Reduce Greenhouse Gases
• Economic Security
• Lower level of Pollution
• Job creation
• biofuels are growing rapidly

57. Advantages of Biofuels
• Biomass used as a fuel reduces need for fossil fuels for the production of heat,
steam, and electricity for residential, industrial and agricultural use.
• Biomass is always available and can be produced as a renewable resource.
• Biomass fuel from agriculture wastes maybe a secondary product that adds
value to agricultural crop.
• Growing Biomass crops produce oxygen and use up carbon dioxide.
• The use of waste materials reduce landfill disposal and makes more space for
everything else.
• Carbon Dioxide which is released when Biomass fuel is burned, is taken in by
plants.
• Less money spent on foreign oil

58. Disadvantages of Biofuel
• High Cost of Production
• Future Rise in Price
• Shortage of Food
• Use of Fertilizer
• Food price increases will be neither open-ended nor
uniform
• Land used for energy crops maybe in demand for other
purposes, such as farming, conservation, housing,
resort or agricultural use
• the risk of climate change has brought energy
conservation to the forefront of public discussion.

59. Disadvantages of Biofuel
• Agricultural wastes will not be available if the
basic crop is no longer grown.
• Additional work is needed in areas such as
harvesting methods .
• Biomass conversion projects are from animal
wastes and are relatively small and therefore
are limited.
• Industrial Pollution

60. Research is needed to reduce the costs of production of Biomass based
fuels. Its expensive and requires a lot of resources to convert the raw
materials to an energy source.

61. • Reduce wastes
• Cleaner air
• New agricultural markets
• global warming reduction
• Benefit developing nations

62. Feeling Confortable with biofuel?

63. fuel
food

64. fuel versus food
• How large will be potential demand from energy markets for
agricultural products? Will it be large enough to reverse the secular
decline in real food prices?
• Land use impacts, fertilizer requirements and water use are other
important factors to be taken into account when considering the
potential of biofuels.
• Competition “fuel versus food” is a major issue to be circumvented
not to impact on the living of poorer mankind and on the prices of
food staples.
